Preface: President of the ICCL
The volume attests to the great and growing vigor of our field by its size, the quality of the papers that it contains, and the tireless devotion of the people who put it together. The first International Conference on Computational Linguistics (it was not dubbed "Coling" for another four years) had no proceedings and neither did the earliest meetings of what was then the Association for Machine Translation and Computational Linguistics. In the approximately thirty-five intervening years, we have taken on the full panoply of academic respectability with departments and chairs in major universities, international conferences whose proceedings instantly become indispensible works of reference, workshops, special interest groups, tutorials and so forth. To you who have helped bring us where we are and show every intention of carrying us on to greater heights, I say thank you, and congratulations!
This meeting is the second Coling to be held in Canada, the first having been in 1976, and it is also the second combined International Conference on Computational Linguistics and Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics, the first having been in Stanford, Cal- ifornia, in 1984. The people who were fortunate enough to attend one or both of those meetings generally look back on them with fondness, and the people that contributed to their organization, with pride. This meeting will eclipse them both, thanks to the devoted efforts of countless people, but most notably Pierre Isabelle and Christian Boitet, and thanks to you, the writers, readers, reviewers, and presenters without whom it would not exist.

Preface: President of the ACL
This volume may come as a surprise to regular participants of the annual ACL conferences. It is certainly more substantial in its weight and, hopefully, in its contents as well. While the former is chiefly the result of the extremely difficult and time-consuming efforts of the Program Committee, headed by Christian Boitet and Pete Whitelock, the latter derives from the participants themselves. The scientific level of any conference is determined not only by the value of the papers presented and included in the Proceedings, but a l so - -and perhaps more impor tan t ly - -by the liveliness and substantiveness of the discussions, in the lecture rooms and the corridors, the cafes and the res tauran ts . . .
Be that as it may, I feel confident that most participants will agree that it has been profitable for us to join forces once again (as we did in Stanford in 1984) and to hold a joint meeting of ACL and Coling. This belief is probably not shared at this time by the co-chairs of the PC, and perhaps even less by the conference organizer, Pierre Isabelle, whose life had been enormously complicated over the past year by the job of bringing so many computational linguists together in one place. I would like to express my deepest admiration and gratitude for all the work they have done in organizing this conference. I am convinced that after the fatigue wears off, even they will share with us the feeling of satisfaction and pleasure at having been part of a stimulating, fruitful and friendly meeting.

Preface: Chair of the Organizing Committee
At the time of this writing, the Proceedings are just about to go to press. It is a thrilling moment for our Organizing Committee. All that work of ours was like setting the table for a grand meal. Now we can see that the food has been taken care of, and that it will be extremely abundant and diverse enough to please almost everyone's palate.
Since the inception of the COLING-ACL'98 project more than four years ago, the road has been long and full of surprises. As a case in point, it is interesting to note that while it was understood from the start that COLING-ACL'98 would be staged at the Universit~ de Montreal, we had no idea then that our laboratory would (for independent reasons) become part of that university in the summer of 1997. Naturally, this particular development turned out to facilitate the project in many respects. More often, however, it was rather some unexpected complication that would pop up along the way. Each time, we would be led to wonder what kind of temporary madness had driven us to solicit the dubious privilege of doing all this organizational work.
Now that we can see the Proceedings and the complete scientific programme, we feel that our efforts are in fact being generously rewarded. I am glad we did take up the challenge to organize COLING-ACL'98 and I would like to thank the ICCL and the ACL for granting us their confidence.
However, if either one of these organizations (or worse the two of them together) should ever ask you to organize such a joint conference, my advice is that you should seriously think twice before accepting... You certainly cannot do it alone. One thing you should ask yourself is whether you will be able to get all the help you will need. Without a competent and truly dedicated team you don' t stand a chance! Pray that you will be as lucky as I was: for it was truly a privilege to be able to work with such a resourceful and pleasant group as the people listed below.

Preface: Programme Committee Co-Chairs
Shortly after COLING'94, when it was decided to accept the proposal to hold COLING'98 in Montreal, Pierre Isabelle suggested to join it with ACL'98. ICCL and ACL agreed very soon and preparations began. It would be the second such joint event, the first having taken place 14 years ago, also in North America, at Stanford.
Since 1984, the NLP community has grown considerably, and a very large participation was expected. Also, the structure of COLINGs and ACL conferences had evolved differently, so that no existing model could be reused. To cut a long story short, it was finally agreed to: (1) set up a programme committee with an ICCL Chair (Christian Boitet, Grenoble) and an ACL Co-chair (Pete Whitelock, Oxford), (2) organize the event in 3 parts, tutorials, conference, and workshops, as in the last ACL/EACL'97 in Madrid, and (3) to assign the main responsibility of the conference part to Grenoble and that of the tutorials and workshops to Oxford.
The answers to the call for tutorial proposals were quite numerous and led to 11 interesting pre-conference tutorials.
The answer to the call for workshops proposal was also very successful, so that we had to extend from 1 to 2 days (Aug. 15 and 16) to accommodate one 2-day workshop and 10 1-day workshops: Very Large Corpora, Content Visualization and Intermedia Representations, Discourse Relations and Discourse Markers, Computational Terminology, Processing of Dependency-based Grammars, Computation of Phonological Constraints, Computational Treatment of Nominals, Translingual Information Management, Usage of WordNet in Natural Language Processing Systems, Compu- tational Approaches to Semitic Languages, and Partially Automated Techniques for Transcribing Naturally Occurring, Continuous Speech.
As far as the conference is concerned, the e-mail submission process led to 640 announcements of submissions. We received 550 full papers, which were reviewed by about 320 reviewers orga- nized in 17 subcommittees. Each paper was evaluated by 3 reviewers and sometimes also by the Subcommittee Chair or one of the Program Chairs. The advice of reviewers was synthesized by the Subcommittee Chairs, with the final evaluation and decision in the hands of the Programme Chairs. We read about 30% of the total submissions in order to resolve borderline cases and en- sure consistency between subcommittees. We maintained a distinction between regular papers and project notes, reflecting the completeness of the work described. By restricting project notes in length, we were able to accept a much higher number of papers within the overall constraints of volume size. In the end, 137 regular papers and 96 project notes (33 with demos) were selected. Two regular papers later proposed also separate demos. No criteria other than scientific ones were applied. In particular, we did not try to reach any a priori fixed quotas for topics. Our community must be very grateful to all who participated in the review process and invested so much of their time and energy, in particular the subcommittee Chairs.
We also decided to invite 2 eminent researchers, David Sankoff from UdM and Changning Huang from Tsinghua University, to present papers on their on-going research, one at the border between NLP and mathematics, and the other in a very active part of NLP. Two interesting panels were also proposed by Antonio Zampolli and Nicoletta Calzolari.
Some remarks can be made at this point on the heterogeneity of papers relative to proposed topics, the state of our community relative to modern technology, and the blind review aspect of the selection process.
The 17 subcommittees were determined by ICCL and ACL in a fairly classical way, the detailed layout being intended to encourage evenly distributed submissions. Each submission had to indicate one or two topics, in order. It then came quite as a surprise to see that the repartition by first topics was extremely uneven, going from 9 to 107! To assign papers to subcommittees, the PC then
iv
considered the second topics. Even then, only 70% of papers could be assigned to a subcommittee corresponding to one of their two selected topics. The PC had to take the titles and abstracts into consideration in making final assignments, some of which were in line with the topics and some not quite so. The PC therefore asked reviewers to evaluate papers with the whole set of topics in mind, rather than only those listed for their subcommittee. Subcommittee Chairs frequently asked new reviewers to join their subcommittee to evaluate papers outside of their initial domain, and the final result was quite satisfactory. However, a review process of this size is very complex, and the decision to accept or reject papers with contradicting evaluations is a difficult matter. Also, the subjective impression of overall quality of papers by subcommittee Chairs varied considerably. Nevertheless, the overall quality was felt to be quite high, and, with more space available in the programme, the PC would have liked to accept about 80 more papers. (These were actually put in a waiting list; however, ahnost no accepted paper was retracted).
On the technological aspect: for the first time in the history of COLINGs, it was decided to use e-mail intensively. That was not possible before, as COLING has always been very international and some countries did not have easy access to e-mail, although ACL has used it for a long time now. The same is actually still true of access to the Web. About 90% of those submitt ing papers understood the guidelines given in the call for papers and sent a correct and complete identification page in plain ASCII as required. The story of the submission proper is different. Paper versions were required, to avoid innumerable problems with formats, fonts, etc., and this was OK. But authors were also invited, again for the first time in the history of COLINGs and the nth time in that of ACLs, to send the same content as postscript or pdffiles for backup purposes in case of postal problems during the review process. This led to an enormous workload and much disappointment for the PC, because (1) only 306 out of the 550 final papers were sent as files; (2) only 162 managed to produce correct files, and for 50% of those, only after sending 2 or 3 incorrect versions; (3) about 75% of authors (including some reviewers and subcommittee chairs) did not follow the guidelines and sent files containing the author names and affiliations, or produced files with bad names such as coling.ps or acl98.ps or Smith.ps instead of [#]idnumber.ps, or did not include the proper fonts, or included files in messages rather than attaching them. A further remark is that the vast majority of file-related problems came from North America, then Europe, and far behind Asia. In other words, our Asian colleagues did far better than all others, although they have many more problems linked with their writing systems.
Following the example of COLING-96 and ACL'97, the review process was blind. From the Programme Chairs' point of view, this innovation is questionable. First, it led to some of the problems mentioned above. Second, it seems often to miss the point, because authors don' t succeed in hiding who they are: even people not knowledgeable in the field can almost always recognize the authors in a mat ter of seconds by looking at the reference list or scanning the paper for names of systems or formalisms. On the other hand, some papers for which authors were not evident got rejected or almost rejected (if the PC saved them) by reviewers who criticized the lack of reference to or comparison with previous work by the same authors!
In the future, it might prove interesting to abandon the idea of preparing a detailed parti t ion into subcommittees a priori, and to use e-mail for building very quickly a series of subcommittees corresponding as tightly as possible to the submissions received. We also hope that the web will soon be available to all researchers in NLP in all countries, so that it can be used throughout the submission and reviewing process. Finally, we would like ICCL and ACL to study whether blind reviewing should be more strictly enforced, or dropped.
To conclude, we would like to say that this conference, with associated tutorials and workshops, promises to be at least as interesting as the previous ones, and to thank not only the members of the Programme Committee and all reviewers, but also all authors without whom tile whole
V
exercise would have no point, and the Organizing Committee who helped the PC in many ways right from the start. Last but not least, to all participants: please don't forget that, although the written aspect of the conference is very important, direct communication and intense discussion are essential. New ideas often emerge only in such contexts. A third of the time allotted to each presentation should be used for discussions, and all the time between presentations, i.e. exactly 50% of our time in the University of Montreal! G

Preface: Student Session Co-Chairs
The proceedings of COLING-ACL'98 wouldn't be complete without the extended abstracts of the students presenting their work in four special student sessions. Unlike the regular papers presented in the main session, students were encouraged to present work in progress that includes great ideas for future research.
We received 46 submissions from 12 countries. After thorough consideration, we accepted 12 of the submitted papers (or 26%). Each submission was reviewed by at least two student reviewers and two non-student reviewers.
We want to thank the 43 members of the program committee for being precise and fair in their assesments and for making our lives easier by returning all reviews on time.
The student members of the COLING-ACL 1998 Student Session Program Committee were Houssem Assadi, EDF-DER, France; Amit Bagga, Duke University, USA; Sarah Boyd, MRI, Mac- quarie University, Australia; Joyce Chai, Duke University, USA; Bart de Boer, Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Belgium; Christy Doran, University o] Pennsylvania, USA; Mark Dras, MRI, Macquarie University, Australia; Philip Edmonds, University of Toronto, Canada; Daqing He, University of Edinburgh, Scotland, UK; Pamela Jordan, University of Pittsburgh, USA; Esther Klabbers, Tech- nical University Eindhoven, The Netherlands; Nobo Komagata, University of Pennsylvania, USA; Daniel Loehr, The MITRE Corporation, USA; Nuno Marques, Universidade Nova de Lisbon, Por- tugal; Maite Taboada, Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Spain; Mariet Theune, IPO, The Netherlands; Laura Tomokiyo, Carnegie Mellon University, USA; Meltem Turhan, Middle East Technical University, Turkey; Jakub Zavrel, Tilburg University, The Netherlands.
